[00:00:00] A Heartfelt Line Or Two - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)

[00:00:00] Written by：Joan Baez

[00:00:01] Though the songwriters of the industry

[00:00:03] Write most of the songs I do

[00:00:06] And it's clear that no one will ever

[00:00:08] Sing them quite the way I do

[00:00:11] I think tonight I'll sit down and write

[00:00:14] A heartfelt line or two

[00:00:17] And if they turn out good enough

[00:00:19] I owe every word to you

[00:00:27] To the kid I thought was a little too young

[00:00:29] To know what sadness was

[00:00:32] Who took me out when I was down

[00:00:34] And set out to find the cause

[00:00:37] Of why the lady had the blues

[00:00:39] And seemed on the verge of tears

[00:00:42] I tell you that kid must have been around

[00:00:44] For a hundred and fifty years

[00:00:48] And to the tough guy blonde with the front tooth gone

[00:00:51] And ships all over his chest

[00:00:53] Who approached me out on the promenade

[00:00:55] Of the beach heading into the west

[00:00:58] His friends lay around on the muscleman lawn

[00:01:00] Like a drunken pirate band

[00:01:03] But he turned into a gentleman

[00:01:05] Called me a lady and kissed my hand

[00:01:11] Though the songwriters of the industry

[00:01:14] Write most of the songs I do

[00:01:16] And it's clear that no one will ever

[00:01:19] Sing them quite the way I do

[00:01:21] I think tonight I'll sit down and write

[00:01:24] A heartfelt line or two

[00:01:26] And if they turn out good enough

[00:01:28] I owe every word to you

[00:01:57] To the man and the woman who threw me a glance

[00:02:00] As they picnicked by the sea

[00:02:02] And returned their gaze to the kid and the food

[00:02:05] So as not to bother me

[00:02:07] They got up to leave and the woman looked on

[00:02:09] As the man leaned down to say

[00:02:12] You've always meant so much to us

[00:02:14] Don't want to bother you and have a nice day

[00:02:17] And to the band of gypsies I call friends

[00:02:20] Who speak so carefully

[00:02:22] To their friend with a life unlike their own

[00:02:25] In its strange complexities

[00:02:27] Who have the patience of the saints

[00:02:30] When I've been down for a spell

[00:02:32] I wish it were a whole lot easier

[00:02:35] To find the words to wish them well

[00:02:41] Though the songwriters of the industry

[00:02:43] Write most of the songs I do

[00:02:46] And it's clear that no one will ever

[00:02:48] Sing them quite the way I do

[00:02:51] I think tonight I'll sit down and write

[00:02:53] A heartfelt line or two

[00:02:55] And if they turn out good enough

[00:02:58] I owe every word to you

[00:03:03] And if they turn out good enough

[00:03:05] I owe every word to you
